99 for this practical timer switch, it gets 5 stars for now.
And, of course, it will eventually pay for itself via the electricity it saves.
At the current price of only $17 this is a good value.
Packaging/appearance
My installation was simple going into a one gang box so i had no trouble with box size, screw locations or any wiring difficulties.
I was fortunate that my surface-mount box had a standard in-wall box behind it, giving lots of working room.
The unboxing experience was straightforward, and the quality of the product was immediately apparent.
This looks very nice from taking it out of the box and checking it out.
Competitiveness
As someone who has bought more than a handful of bn-link products in the past, i felt comfortable in giving it a shot.
Looks and feels higher end than the price would suggest and looks/feels better than the big box store comparable priced timer.
I previously recommended this product to other potential buyers and stand by that recommendation.

The bathrooms in our house have the air extractor on the same switch that turns on the light that is while the light is on the air extractor will also be working but this means that when a person finishes using the bathroom and leaves it the light automatically turns off but not necessarily the bad smells have already been evacuated or in the opposite case the light and the extractor are left on these will remain on for hours until someone notices it

Please note that this device requires a neutral wire to install just like smart switches and just like smart switches it also requires a little more space in the installation to accommodate the internal switch box and connections

We are the worlds worst my husband and i about leaving the exhaust fan on for hours until one or the other discovers it and turns it off
